Too modest

Too busy

Carla Duncan

Treasurer

Carla was certified in 1990 but wasn't doing much diving until joining the club in 1994 and gaining so many new dive buddies. Carla dives year round but wishes she could find a way to keep her hands warm in the winter.

Boris Elster

Director, Marketing

In 2001, while in Puerto Vallarta, Boris went on a discover-scuba dive, saw his reflection in a pufferfish and never looked back.  Today, having been here and there, and done this and that, his favourite dive spots, by far, are Tobermory and the caves of Riviera Maya.

Melissa Soon
